[The bomb outrage at the Munich Octoberfest on 26. 9. 1980 (author's transl)].
The bomb outrage at the October Beer Festival on the evening of September 26, 1980 was a great test of the strain on, and also a crucial trial for the Munich Ambulance Service. Over 200 injured persons, one quarter of them seriously or most seriously injured, were given adequate first aid and within one hour 179 were distributed to 23 hospitals in and around Munich. Some fortunate circumstances favored the technical course of the rescue operation. Small errors which occurred gave rise to reconsideration of questions of catastrophe medicine and problems of organization and planning. The team-work of the rescue services played an essential part in the optimally developed system of the emergency medical services in Munich.
